While I don't use any bullet exclusely, I have a fair amount of experience with this great bullet. About ten years ago I bought nearly one thousand of them at a garage sale. With them my son,my brothers and I have killed enought deer, elk and other stuff to know this is one great bullet. Out of my 280AI it is scary accurate and flat shooting. Two of my brothers took their 7mm Rem Mag. loaded with that bullet to B.C. and killed one each, elk, moose, caribou. Some of the most text book perfect expanded bullets I have in my modest collection are 154gr. Hornady's. Yeah, I like them.
